How often do you take apart your fans to clean them?

Not real often. I recently cleaned my bigger Vornado and it was a big pain in the *ss. Then when I was done I saw what looked like it wasn’t done and it took me hours to see some after that too 🤨🤣 I can laugh now that I’m done cleaning it with a box of and a big roll of paper towels 🤣

@MellyMel22 those look harder to clean. I just took the front and back panels off my box fan and hosed them off outside and wiped down the blades

@itsok I was afraid I’d break mine doing that. It was like $100 when I got it. I managed to take it apart best it could be and used the kitchen sprayer and that’s what barely did anything, several times.

Did yours work well after that?
